Absolutely. (Now, watch, I'll go brain dead next week). But, and I oughtta clarify my previous post a little, if I meant safe and called the runner out and the runner is just looking at me in disbelief, I cannot now call her out if the defense tags her while off the base, after I've mistakenly given the wrong call. I've now put her in jeopardy by vocally giving the wrong call. Did any of that make sense? If so, then, it should apply to the original scenario also.

And you're right about the probablity of getting to 1st safely. I just don't think you can take the last chance to win away from a team without any recourse at all. I'm not even gonna say this is right, it just seems closer to right than ending the game is. Doing it this way, at least the defense has a chance to still win. By not doing it this way, the game ends and the offense has no chance at all.
